In this contribution we present a controller tuning method which combines some of the advantages of Iterative Feedback Tuning (IFT) with some of the advantages of simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation (SPSA). In particular this scheme can be shown to converge with geometric rate when a pure gradient search is used and the system is noise free. The number of experiments required to obtain an unbiased estimate of the gradient can be reduced significantly for multi-input multi-output systems. In particular we study the problem where the reference signal is periodic and when the noise is negligible.
